FAQ - What does a 29 error code mean?

Article Number: 217 | Rating: 3/5 from 9 votes | Last Updated: Fri, Nov 21, 2014 10:51 AM

A 29 error code indicates a neutralizer drainage failure. The neutralizer is designed to drain condensate away from the heater. If the neutralizer and/or drain becomes blocked up, the unit will flash the 29 error code to prevent the burner from being flooded.

Common issues related to the 29 error code include:

1) Blockage in the condensate drain line
2) Incorrect condensate line piping (e.g. upward sloping of drain line, trapped drain line, incorrect size piping)
